An excerpt from the WSJ...
... Investigators were combing through his social-media accounts and believe he harbored conspiracy theories, according to the officials.

Before lighting himself on fire, Azzarello walked into the park, took colorful pamphlets out of a knapsack and threw them into the air, according to officials and eyewitnesses. The officials said the pamphlets contained conspiracy-based writings, including alleged Ponzi schemes and how local educational institutes were tied to the mob.

Officials said Azzarello was in a part of the park that was open to the public but that they were reassessing security around the courthouse.

“We’re very concerned,” NYPD Chief of Department Jeffrey Maddrey said. “Of course we’re going to look at everything with the magnitude of what’s going on around right here.”

Julie Berman, a Manhattan resident, said she saw Azzarello with two signs—one about a Ponzi scheme and the other about President Biden and Trump being in cahoots together. Azzarello told her to get away, she said.

“I guess he thought I was going to stop him. It didn’t occur to me to stop him,” she said. “It happened so fast.”
